Matthew 24:14
And the gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations: Then the end will come
We are no means teachers. But we are called to preach the Gospel to everyone as it is the duty of every Christian because Hell is a real place and God will put it on the heart of a born again Christian to bring the Good News (the gospel) to everyone that no one shall perish.
Mark 16:15 " And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature"
Isaiah 5:3 "Woe unto them that call evil good and good evil; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"
We live in a world were followers of Jesus Christ(The Truth, the Way and the Life) are ridiculed.
Criminals are often treated as victims, conformity to the narrative is praised and questioning the current agenda is demonized,
Toxic injection are given for prevention of illness, indoctrination is called education, murder of the unborn is called "my choice" ,
and on and on it goes as Satan is the god of this world.
1 John 19 "And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness".
We must break free from all this inversion and deception.
There is no peace the world can give .
Jesus said: "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed". John 8:36
If Prison Walls could speak
Richard Wurmbrand
Richard Wurmbrand gives an honest and very moving account on what gruesome long term imprisonment can do to the Christian mind and how his faith survives This kind of torture goes on today as well. The persecuted Christians which are many must always be in our prayers. In 1967 Richard and his wife formed, which is today known as, Voice of the Martyrs an organisation that helps and brings awareness to the persecuted Christians.
"The convert must know he may starve to death in prison.God must simply be served" Richard Wurmbrand
Tortured for Christ
Richard Wurmbrand
This book is such a powerful testimony. As a pastor, Richard was imprisoned for 14 years and tortured in horrendous ways. It shows the ugly face of communism but most important the love and forgiveness that Richard showed his torturers. His wife was separated from him working as a slave in a labour camp where she never abandon her faith in Jesus. The big important question arises: Would we be willing to do the same?
"Christianity that does not its utmost to win souls for Christ is not Christianity" Richard Wurmbrand
Power from High: Charles G Finney
Charles Finney opposed the tulip model of calvinism and the arminianism in the 1800s. he was a lawyer, at the time, who was a music director in a church but resisted the call from Christ, he was renown for his lack of belief. He had a large following of non believers who stood by and used his arquments for their own lack of belief. At the age of 26 he was filled with the holy spirit which fully convicted him of his sinfulness and brought him to repentance. Through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ he entered peace with God and with who he brought a revival of faith to a multitude. it is a book that was writen hundreds of years ago but could well be the actions of luke warm churches today.
